Fwd: [ebirdsnyc] KING EIDER, ICELAND GULL Kings Co.

Has to be a first for one inside NYC harbor.. Wow a good year so far for this rare duck species here .. King eider a cool bird esp the drakes

But frost, like the crystallized dreams of autumn, began to coat the clearing with its sugar glaze.

Just now, I observed a hen KING EIDER and a 1CY Iceland Gull at Brooklyn Army Terminal Pier 4. The Eider is currently loafing near the break wall, if you were looking north.

It's frigid here so dress warmly if you decide to twitch.

Cheers,
